[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] E90 Commie:
I´m now on FS 2.7 and thought about the 2.8 but the information about the Manilla 2.5 stopped me.

It would be interesting to hear about the future plans for the FireStorm - is the next step to go to the Manilla 2.6 in the 2.9/3.0?

If I understand everything correct with the different Manilla builds (Rhodium/Topaz/Leo) HTC has decided to stop development of Manilla 2.0/Rhodium/Topaz and 2.5 Leo and replace those versions with a new 6.5-optimized Manilla 2.6 with Sense styling?

AFAIK the Rhodium/Topaz Manilla 2.0 is a 6.1 edition and the Manilla 2.6 will become the new "Manilla for WM 6.5" and thus become standard in the Rhodium/Topaz when those devices gets their upgrades to 6.5 from HTC - is that correct?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] vagelis:
greetings agent_47,

thank you for all the amazing ROM work; currently happily using 2.7FS

before I attempt to flash 2.8FS_LEO, may I ask if this ROM still has an issue importing SMS's backed up with PIM backup?

If that is still the case, I guess I'll skip this one...

Thank you in advance

Getting a lot of battery heat on 2.8FS leo.

Battery dropping pretty fast too
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xylidine99:
@agent 47 u said you have the latest dialer in 2.8 a couple post back which is it exactly cuz im still haveing the call pickup problem...

also if i install a different dialer on the rom the smart dialer stuff becomes invisible did you ever figure out the registry setting to fix this?

thanks again..

ps trying the 2.8 experio ...i feel like a kid that just got ice cream yipppie
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] harolds:
Just the opposite here.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] papped:
Only from reinstalling .cabs and a few reboots, I went from about 80% battery to 55% in an hour

Battery seems to only get hot on the reboots. After it's been running a while it seems better. So if I do a bunch of reboots it's killing the battery.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] biernes_atrece:
just a suggestion.

it might help killing the apps in the task manager.

sometimes apps dont automatically turn off even after using it,

specially active sync
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] bassam:
hi, your radio is the latest dont change it and............

since no landscape my keyboard i am using with v2.8fs

yeah, the only thing running is seven. It seems that the phone is fine as long as I don't do multiple softresets.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] newstar:

4. scrolling seems to be smoother (no 3rd party plug-ins yet)

now off to bed.

will check on performance & functions tom & report

Taskbar Icons

Hi Agent_47,

I see that many people previously in this thread have had problems with changing taskbar icons after updates to that dialer skin or installation of alternate volume sliders.

If possible, could you please post a cab or the oppropriate files in order to make the taskbar icons revert back to the original ones provided in this rom.

Thank you in advance for your help, and thank you for a great rom!

im liking the rom so far but im having some issues

-poor battery performance

-youtube video playback is too slow to be of any real use

-im getting %55 memory usage at fresh boot without installing anything. is this normal

-annoying ghosting problems when i press the windows button
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
1.batti seems fine to me

2.try the neo2007 driver. fixes the thing

3.its normal for leo

Stil have the GPS issue with Firestorm 2.7 (the first build - don't know the build number) - any guess?

Is manilla 2.6 released yet?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] bigbassist1701:
FS 2.8 ...

Anyway to restore the classic Messaging program instead of "Messaging_Client.exe" that has been cooked in. I know my old SMS's are restored as I can view them TF3D but not loaded in this new threaded Messaging Client.

Thanks
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
anyone else with this issue?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hyellow:
is it just me, or is it not possible to connect trough active sync with firestorm? i tried connecting using usb, but nor the pc or my xperia is doing anything. on the pc i expect it would at least show that there is new hardware detected and on xperia at least a pop up to choose between active sync or data transfer... or is the usb pop removed from this rom? anyway... xperia does noting when connecting to pc... any thoughts...?

Also, with previous rom, firestorm 2.7, i was able to install tt _7.915.916 (one of the latest versions i believe, but with 2.8 it'll stuck on the installation screen before asking me where to install.

I noticed a tt.cab provided a few pages back, wich i managed to install, but it is says that my maps were not activated, though i hve activated it.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] meska:
Hey agent,

i have a little concern with trying your current firestorm (not LEO).

As far as i can judge from the pics you now use a new skinned dialer.

I simply don't stick to the design. Is it possible for you to provide a cab or the files for the style you used in your previous roms?

Perhabs i'm missing it that the HTC dialer is included besides the skinned WinMo dialer because i have only seen the screenshots.

So far I have flashed every version of you rom :) please keep up your superb work...

regards
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] djjef85:
activesync works fine here

for TT, you have to activate your maps again, because it's an older version
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] second_east:
Disable TF3D first. The sms font size selection window will pop up normally.

But sms text size will return back to default upon soft reset.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Saiyajin:
Someone else posted already something about this issue, but i can't find this post.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] demonknight9:
Fantastic rom!

Thanks AGENT_47, this is a wicked rom. There is so much packed in this Rom that you will never get bored. The rodium touch flo is brilliant. Well, done its a masterpiece. Apart from the ghosting which i fixed with the shell in post 3 its perfect!:)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
but i thought ppl would like the ghosting!!! i mean i know it can be a lil annoying when we are frantically searching a something....but how often do we do that....

i have that ghost on :p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chinee_iz:
i have left it on as well! i like it! ppl change is good...lol
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nsane:
Agent,

thanks so much for your great work and continuous updates.

I just wanted to signal that a fix for TF3D sms bug has been released by HTC. You might want to cook it in your next release ;-)

Thanks again.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] THE GRIZZ:
thanks

but the neo 2007 driver did not improve the speed of youtube noticably

can someone else confirm the low performance of youtube
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] THE GRIZZ:
the ghosting would look cool if the scrolling was was very smooth. its too jerky to be cool now. also selecting the settings nutton keeps the previous screen items. right now its far too sluggish and buggy to be considered a visual effect
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] newstar:
that thing is still from 2.6 :))

yeah right other problem solved

BT little bug

sms big bug

so much laggy

battery eater rom

any way fastest and beautiful rom

thanks for efforts
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Jablko:
I'm still on xperio 2.7. Is there any way to get the mms funcion back without flashing 2.8? Am very satisfied with this version and don't feel ready to flash again just yet.

Thank you.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
sms is laggy coz its not complete. contact these ppl: http://www.comviva.com/

i have purchased vito quick sms to make sms fast but

this app also not working on leo
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Klaus1960:
I really agree (with demonknight 9). In fact, for the first time I do not have problems with SMS! The sound too is excellent. However, the start-up sound still stutters, but that's hardly a big issue! Hope it stays like this, and if it does, this is a keeper as far as I'm concerned (until the next ROM, of course:)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
i m guessing from the mention of sms that u are talking about the leo rom (coz demonknight9 was mentioning rhodium rom :S)....but to be honest i think although we might neva see a stable 2.5 from HTC, i feel its stable enough for daily use. IF u understand the system :p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
after installing the dailer. go to windir and delete phcanOverbmp.dll and softreset :D

Tut tut Agent_47 protecting your roms..

How will others be able to steal your work eh?? all that stress, they might have to cook for themselves now..

You'll make them sick ...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] demonknight9:
I am talking about the Valkyrie 2.8 firestorm. I thought that the touch flo was the rhodium one but looks like it isn't? Despite, it’s a wicked version with the carbon making it stand out from the others. The ghosting looks good but on a page where you can’t scroll up and down I couldn't read anything as all the icons and writing overlaps. Anyways I prefer it without the blur, I just been installing a couple of programs in the rom and sending text messages plus setting up email and testing everything and call me a pessimist but I was just thinking, surely there must be some flaws in this rom, annoyances of some kind. Well, I’ll have to say, I can't find any. Almost done all of the programs and so far nothing, it is as stable as a ship room and till this day after flashing many devices I have not found one quite the same.

Perfecto!! AGENT_47, you done your homework with this one!

:)

i am more than happy with this rom after the small fixes. i still have some issues with youtube. performance it very poor (about only 5 frames per second). i tried the neo2007 driver but thats not much better. the same video plays perfectly on a touch diamond 2 @ about 25FPS

also, the leo photo album is very choppy when zooming in and out. the old one worked so much better

also is there a plan for you to use Etendir for a future rom. seems that there are major performance gains by using it
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Jablko:
Regarding the neo2007 driver; after installing it the HTCAlbum application would close itself after a few seconds everytime when viewing images.

Removed it, softreset and then it was back to normal.

Anyone else had this issue?

The program or settings cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions or insufficient memory. can ya fix it, man? it will be super cool...by the way, in ur 1.95 version, I don't see this bug, but from the following version to the current one, I always face this bug...all the time....really need ur help...thank you so much

Hey agent, I love you work man :D I dont post much, but i am now, because i just got ur 2.8 LEO and it is awesome. I've tried quite a few ROMs and yours is definitely the best. The organisation of the start menu is pretty cool - tried out touch x the other day, and i was missing your folders etc :) Thanks for all the hard work you.

If i could make one suggestion, it would be to include synchro time in the rom. makes life a lil easier :)

Otherwise, amazing work. Thanks Agent

Ok, I've got a problem. Just tried to install tomtom 7 and it just hags with the cursor spinning saying that it's installing but the progress bar does not move. Is there a fix for this?

Sure, let's try it out!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hyellow:
a few pages back, agent 47 posted a cab file with working tomtom. I too, had the same issue like you described, but the cab provide by agent47 works fine, though it's a little older version.

I have a registry fix for youtube. don't really know what it does, but i've found it usefull for many kinds of youtube related problems, especially when you change roms frequently, different versions of youtube etc... on some roms the video was choppy or no video at all, just the sound, then the registry fix. fixed it all.

try it
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] umar_akhtar786:
I cant seem to delete this file?

Is this what you meant by protection?

If so, i dont see the purpose of askin me to delete it when you kno its not possible. I do not wish to steal anything from your roms, i am actually looking to restore the original icon set that came with the rom.

If im mistaken, then i offer my apologies. If there is any way you could still help me, please let me know. Thanks,
